Hummus Recipe




Hummus is the type of recipe that can be altered to your pantry stock or your tastes. I have provided two recipes, one basic, and one seasoned with are both quite delicious!


Basic Hummus Recipe


1.5 cups cooked channa peas (or 1 can)
1-1.5 tbs olive oil
1 lemon or lime, juice extracted (or 1 tbs apple cider vinegar)
1 clove garlic (optional)
1 tsp Sea or pink salt to taste
1/2 tsp ground cumin
½ tsp ground turmeric or a fresh piece
½ tsp Italian seasoning, cayenne, ground ginger and paprika (optional)



Seasoned Hummus 



1.5 cups cooked channa peas (or 1 can)
1-1.5 tbs olive oil
1 lemon or lime, juice extracted
1 tsp Sea or pink salt to taste
1 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp ground cumin
½ tsp ground turmeric or 1 small fresh piece
½ tsp ground ginger or 1 small fresh piece
½ tsp Italian seasoning, ground paprika  or cayenne
1 clove garlic (optional)
¼ onion
1 tbs nutritional yeast
1.5 tsp kelp or dulse seasoning

Method:


Soak the channa in boiling water twice, and overnight. Cook until tender. Or use 1 can of chickpeas.

Prepare all fresh seasoning such as onion, garlic, ginger or turmeric.

Blend all your ingredients together in a food processor to a smooth cream. Use a spoon in between to ensure it mixes well. Add a little water as needed to soften properly.








Serve as a salad dressing, or use as a veggie dip, garnish a quinoa burger or create a fresh rainbow salad wrap.
